MODEL BC012 (2 607 224 180) BATTERY CHARGER
FOR USE WITH BATTERY PACK MODEL BAT015
Plug charger cord into your standard power
outlet, then insert battery pack into
charger.The charger's green indicator will
begin to "BLINK". This indicates that the
battery is receiving a fast charge. Fast-
charging will automatically stop when the
battery pack is fully charged.
When the indicator light stops "BLINKING"
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
When you begin the charging process of the
battery pack, a steady green light could also
mean the battery pack is too hot or too cold.
If the red indicator light is "ON", the battery
pack is too hot or cold for fast-charging. The
charger will switch to trickle charge, until a
suitable temperature is reached, at which
time the charger will switch automatically to
fast-charging.
If the red indicator light is "BLINKING", the
battery pack cannot accept a charge or the
contacts of the charger or battery pack are
contaminated. Clean the contacts of the
charger or battery pack only as directed in
1. The battery pack accepts only about 80%
of its maximum capacity with its first few
charge cycles. However, after the first few
charge cycles, the battery will charge to full
capacity in one hour or less.
2. The charger was designed to fast charge
the battery only when the battery
temperature is between 40˚F (4˚C) and 105˚F
(41˚C). If the battery pack is too hot or too
cold, the charger will not fast charge the
battery. (This may happen if the battery pack
is hot from heavy use). When the battery
temperature returns to between 40˚F (4˚C)
and 105˚F (41˚C), the charger will
automatically begin charging.
3. A substantial drop in operating time per
charge may mean that the battery pack is
nearing the end of its life and should be
replaced.
4. If you anticipate long periods (i.e. a month
or more) of non-use of your tool, it is best to
run your tool down until it is fully discharged
before storing your battery pack. After a long

unplug the charger (unless you're charging
another battery pack) and slip the battery
pack back into the tool handle.

period of storage, the capacity at first
recharge will be lower. Normal capacity will
be restored in two or three charge/discharge
cycles. Remember to unplug charger during
storage period.
5. If battery does not charge properly:
a. Check for voltage at outlet by
plugging in some other electrical device.
b. Check to see if outlet is connected to
a light switch which turns power "off" when
lights are turned off.
c. Check battery pack terminals for dirt.
Clean with cotton swab and alcohol if
necessary.
d. If you still do not get proper charging,
take or send tool, battery pack and charger
to your local Bosch Service Center. See
"Tools, Electric" in the Yellow Pages for
names and addresses.
Note: Use of chargers or battery packs not
sold by Bosch may void the warranty.
